My Forever Love: Red Velvet Cupcakes

I can still remember when this love affair began, it dates back to: Memorial Day, 2005. Hot day on Bleeker St. in NY. Not even the sight of the Marc Jacobs store could detour me from MAGNOLIA BAKERY! At the time, I had a vanilla cupcake with chocolate icing. AMAZING. Actual cake was extremely moist; Chocolate icing was just the right amount of sweet to cure anyone’s ailing sweet tooth.

Since then, I have fallen for The Red Velvet Cupcake and my infatuation with Magnolia Bakery is now over and I’m onto: SPRINKLES CUPCAKES! Trendy, cute, yummy… what more can you ask for in a cupcake joint? Or so I thought! Williams Sonoma now carries the Sprinkles Cupcake mix. Sprinkles mix available in Red Velvet, Chocolate, Lemon, and Vanilla for $14 which includes mix and a simple recipe for Sprinkles Bakeries’ signature frosting!

Try one for yourself; it’s definitely worth every single calorie!
